hi madam,
i can appreciate your worry about your daughter.
this is too early to say anything madam.
but as the situation is elaborated by u, it is worry some. the shadow in brain has to be investigated fully.
the fact is chemotherapy does't reach brain, so a cancer metastasis may occur there.
the situation will be clear after proper investigation.
